Street + Art = InspirationDesigners Daniel and Klaus Bellon have been photographing street signage around the world for more than 17 years. This book celebrates their love of typography; and highlights the beauty of type in its truest form; not as a profession but as a necessity of everyday life. The images captured here are at times humorous; unexpected and even charming. But for those who understand the rules that are being broken; these explorations of type design are refreshing and inspiring.Even though graphic designers often think of themselves as the keepers of letterforms and typography; they do not own them.Typography belongs to everyone.Typography belongs to the people. Includes a royalty-free CD with 15 original fonts inspired by signs in the book.Type images were collected from countries around the world; including the United States; Dominican Republic; Puerto Rico; Belize; Canada; Colombia; Venezuela; Hong Kong; China; Singapore; and Malaysia.
